Training

Our trainers include Kevin Petitgout, Carole Biesenthal and Heather McCarthy.  We also offer regular clinics with international rider and trainer Jessica Jo Tate.  The horses benefit from an education where they are encouraged to go forward with freedom and confidence.  The youngsters are trained indoors, outdoors, over small fences and are also taken off the property for even more exposure.  By the age of 3 ½ most of the horses have already crossed creeks, jumped ditches, trotted and cantered in an open field.  This results in a horse that can be taken to his or her first show with confidence. 

We encourage our clients to take lessons and clinics to further their education and the training of their horse. Many enjoy trail riding as a mental and physical release from the demands of training.  This keeps our horses fresh and eager to learn.  The horse and rider benefit from the variety and the incidence of injury is greatly reduced.
